Based on true events, Tomorrow Is for the Brave is a gripping World War II page‑turner about a courageous woman who risks it all for what is right—perfect for fans of Natasha Lester and Kristen Harmel.

1939, France: Lavish parties, fast cars, and a closet full of the latest fashion—to the average eye, socialite Violet St. Croix seemingly has it all. But what she truly wants is a life full of meaning and purpose. So when France falls to Germany, Violet defies her parents’ wishes and joins the war effort.  With her impeccable skill for driving under pressure, she is soon sent to North Africa to shepherd French Foreign Legion officers carrying valuable intelligence through dangerous territory.

But as the Allies encounter one mishap after another, Violet becomes convinced there is a spy in their ranks. And when her commanding officer is murdered, Violet realizes she might be the only one who can uncover the traitor and save the lives of countless soldiers on the front lines. Convincing others to believe her is difficult enough. Finding someone she can trust just might be impossible.
 

Genre:

  • "Bowen's flair for creating intriguing characters and emotionally connective storytelling is matched by her ability to construct a top-notch plot (inspired by true life events) that brilliantly distills enthralling historical details, nerve-jangling suspense, and a dollop of cinematic romance (with a dash of dry wit) into an utterly compelling thriller that will have readers captivated."
     
    Booklist
  • "Violet is a heroine worth cheering for.  A class-crossing romance raises the stakes in this compelling, suspense-filled story, which is based on the experiences of a real-life woman driver who served with the Free French Brigade at Bir Hakeim. Readers will undoubtedly find this and other aspects of World War II history explored in this book fascinating."

About the Author

RITA-award winning author Kelly Bowen grew up in Manitoba, Canada. She attended the University of Manitoba and earned a Master of Science degree in veterinary physiology and endocrinology. But it was Kelly’s infatuation with history and a weakness for a good love story that led her down the path of historical romance. When she is not writing, she seizes every opportunity to explore ruins and battlefields. Currently, Kelly lives in Winnipeg with her husband and two boys, all of whom are wonderfully patient with the writing process. Except, that is, when they need a goalie for street hockey.
